FOXC2-HIS122 and pH-dependent gene expression

ABSTRACT: Intracellular pH (pHi) dynamics regulates diverse cell processes such as proliferation, dysplasia, and differentiation, often mediated by the protonation state of a functionally critical histidine residue in endogenous pH sensing proteins. How pHi dynamics can directly regulate gene expression and whether transcription factors can function as pH sensors has received limited attention. We tested the prediction that transcription factors with a histidine in their DNA binding domain (DBD) that forms hydrogen bonds with nucleotides can have pH-regulated activity, which is relevant to more than 85 transcription factors in distinct families, including FOX, KLF, SOX and MITF/Myc. Focusing on FOX family transcription factors, we used unbiased SELEX-seq to identify pH-dependent DNA binding motif preferences, then confirm pH-regulated binding affinities for FOXC2, FOXM1, and FOXN1 to a canonical FkhP DNA motif that are 2.5 to 7.5 greater at pH 7.0 compared with pH 7.5. For FOXC2, we also find greater activity for an FkhP motif at lower pHi in cells and that pH-regulated binding and activity are dependent on a conserved histidine (His122) in the DBD. RNA-seq with FOXC2 also reveals pH-dependent differences in enriched promoter motifs. Our findings identify pH-regulated transcription factor-DNA binding selectivity with relevance to how pHi dynamics can regulate gene expression for myriad cell behaviours.

Intracellular pH dynamics regulates intestinal stem cell lineage specification

Project description:Emerging evidence is revealing critical roles of intracellular pH (pHi) in development (), but it remains unclear whether pHi regulates adult stem cell lineage specification. We find that pHi dynamics is a key regulator of cell fate in the mouse intestinal stem cell (ISC) lineage. We identify a pHi gradient along the crypt axis in intestinal organoids and find that dissipating this gradient by inhibiting Na-H exchanger 1 (NHE1) activity genetically or pharmacologically abolishes crypt budding. Using lineage tracing and single cell RNA sequencing we demonstrate that pHi dynamics acts downstream of Atoh1, with increased pHi promoting differentiation toward the secretory lineage, while reduced pHi biases differentiation into absorptive lineage. Consistent with this, disrupting the pHi gradient blocks new Paneth cell differentiation. Paneth cells provide an essential Wnt signal to ISCs in organoids, and we find that the loss of crypt budding upon NHE1 inhibition can be rescued with exogenous WNTs. Altogether, our findings indicate that pHi is tightly regulated in the ISC lineage and that an increase in pHi is required for Paneth cell specification and thus tissue maintenance. These observations reveal a previously unrecognized role for pHi dynamics in the cell fate specification within an adult stem cell lineage.

Histone acetylation regulates intracellular pH

Project description:Differences in global levels of histone acetylation occur in normal and cancer cells, although the reason cells regulate these levels has remained unclear. Here we demonstrate a role for histone acetylation in regulating intracellular pH (pHi). As pHi decreases, histones are globally deacetylated by histone deacetylases (HDACs) and the released acetate anions are co-exported with protons out of the cell by monocarboxylate transporters (MCTs), preventing further reductions in pHi. Conversely, global histone acetylation increases at more alkaline pHi, such as when resting cells are induced to proliferate. Inhibition of HDACs or MCTs decreases acetate export and lowers pHi, particularly compromising pHi maintenance in acidic environments. Global deacetylation at low pH is reflected at a genomic level by decreased abundance and extensive redistribution of acetylation at promoters and intergenic regions. Thus acetylation of chromatin functions as a rheostat to regulate pHi with important implications for therapeutic use of HDAC inhibitors. To investigate the redistribution of H4K16ac throughout the genome upon treatment at pH 6.5

FOXM1 binds directly to non-consensus sequences in the human genome

Project description:The Forkhead transcription factor, FOXM1, is a key regulator of the cell cycle and is over-expressed in most types of cancer. FOXM1, similar to other Forkhead (FKH) factors binds to a canonical FKH motif in vitro. However, genome-wide mapping studies in different cell lines have shown a lack of enrichment of the FKH motif at FOXM1 binding sites suggesting an alternative mode of chromatin recruitment. We have investigated the role of direct versus indirect DNA binding in FOXM1 recruitment by performing ChIP-seq with WT and DNA binding deficient FOXM1. An in vitro fluorescence polarization (FP) assay was used to identify point mutations in the DNA binding domain (DBD) of FOXM1 that inhibit binding to a FKH consensus sequence. Stable cell lines expressing either WT or DBD mutant green fluorescence protein (GFP)-tagged FOXM1 were utilized for genome-wide mapping studies comparing the distribution of the DBD mutant protein to the WT. This showed that interaction of the DBD of FOXM1 with target DNA is essential for recruitment. Moreover, analysis of protein interactome of the WT versus DBD mutant FOXM1 showed that the reduced recruitment is not due to the mutation inhibiting protein-protein interactions. This study showed that a functional DBD domain is essential for FOXM1 chromatin recruitment. Even in FOXM1 mutants that show almost complete loss of binding the protein-protein interactome and pattern of phosphorylation are largely unaffected. These results strongly support a model whereby FOXM1 is specifically recruited to chromatin through co-factor interactions by binding directly to both canonical and non-canonical DNA sequences.

Differential roles of FOXC2 in the trabecular meshwork and Schlemm’s canal in glaucomatous pathology

Project description:Impaired development and maintenance of Schlemm's canal (SC) are associated with perturbed aqueous humor outflow and intraocular pressure. The angiopoietin (ANGPT)/TIE2 signaling pathway regulates SC development and maintenance, whereas the molecular mechanisms of crosstalk between SC and the neural crest (NC)-derived neighboring tissue, the trabecular meshwork (TM), are poorly understood. Here, we show NC-specific forkhead box (Fox)c2 deletion in mice results in impaired SC morphogenesis, loss of SC identity, and elevated intraocular pressure. Visible-light optical coherence tomography analysis further demonstrated functional impairment of the SC in response to changes in intraocular pressure in NC-Foxc2 -/- mice, suggesting altered TM biomechanics. Single-cell RNA-sequencing analysis identified that this phenotype is predominately characterized by transcriptional changes associated with extracellular matrix organization and stiffness in TM cell clusters, including increased matrix metalloproteinase expression, which can cleave the TIE2 ectodomain to produce soluble TIE2. Moreover, endothelial-specific Foxc2 deletion impaired SC morphogenesis because of reduced TIE2 expression, which was rescued by deleting the TIE2 phosphatase VE-PTP. Thus, Foxc2 is critical in maintaining SC identity and morphogenesis via TM-SC crosstalk.
